The anime series was announced back in March 2019 from the creators of Kick Ass when the SVOD service partnered with animation studio Sublimation on remake of the RPG video game “Dragon’s Dogma” which will follow a man’s journey seeking revenge on a dragon who stole his heart.

Although not much is known about the series yet but we did find the landing page for the anime on Netflix, with a short description which says "Ethan sets out to vanquish the Dragon that took his heart, but with every demon he battles, the more he loses his humanity."

After seeing the poster art of the series and the given description, the series semms that it's gonna be good.

The official synopsis of the video game says: "The game opens with a group led by a knight named Savan nearing the end of a quest to defeat the Dragon, a being which signals the end of days. An unknown time later in the present day Duchy of Gransys, the protagonist's village of Cassardis is attacked by the newly-arrived Dragon. When the protagonist attacks the Dragon, the Dragon takes their heart. The protagonist remains alive after this, marking them as the "Arisen", a figure destined to face the Dragon and stop the coming apocalypse; the Arisen is served by Pawns, human-like beings who live to fight the Dragon, and the Arisen creates a new Pawn shortly after beginning their quest. Heading to a nearby encampment, the protagonist defends an encampment of soldiers from a Hydra attack, taking one of its heads before driving it back; this is witnessed by Mercedes Marten, a soldier sent from a neighbouring nation to support Gransys's Duke Edmun Dragonsbane against the Dragon."
